Answer:
<h3>Yes, society as Kurt Vonnegut imagines in his "Harrison Bergeron" could be read as symbolic of realities in our society today.</h3>
Explanation:
Vonnegut's story presents a future where the U.S Constitution has created a complete uniform society where every citizen is treated equally in every aspects of life. However, to achieve this feat, the government has abolished the principles of individuality and personal liberty.The government subdues any form of individual talent or intellectual abilities.
Vonnegut does not seem to distinguish any particular government here, but we can relate a similar case given the time when he has written this story. The story was published in 1961 which was during the time of Cold War. Perhaps through this story, he wanted to criticize the socialist or Marxian form of government emphasized by USSR.
The story revolves a government that tries to subdue any form of individualistic ideas or innovations. It contrast the tenets of capitalism and democracy where individual freedom and talented intellectuals are oppressed by the government.
Similarly, the control of media and oppression of freedom of speech and expression by governments are some symbolic realities in our society today. This is because the government tries to suppress any form of dissent or criticism against them. Individuals who opposes the government are usually forced into silence by imprisonment and other forms of threats.
